Enhanced Weathering and Erosion of a Cohesive Shore Platform Following the Experimental Removal of Mussels
The organisms inhabiting intertidal platforms can affect their weathering and erosion rates. Research on biotic influences on platform integrity has traditionally emphasized the role of bioeroders (i.e., organisms that scrap or bore into platforms via mechanical and chemical means). Yet, recent stud...
